It's a slot loader with a 20GB hard drive and 256 MB of RAM. I can't say if it's a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive. It's the model that has the door on the back to accept an airport card or to swap out the RAM, and 2 firewire ports. I suspect that the HD and RAM must have been upgrades. I figured out how to partition it using the full install disk of OS 9 the guy gave me, and then I reinstalled to OS X.1. I figured maybe it was necessary, maybe not, but either way, I'd have an extra partition if I wanted to do a dual boot or anything. I'm starting to get the hang of OSX now, and it runs pretty well on this machine. I wish I could upgrade to take advantage of the software out there, but I don't think it's in the cards, unless I see something pop up on craigslist.
The door on the back would be for a VGA mirroring connection. The door on the bottom gives you access to install an Airport card or memory (as well as the SMC reset and PRAM battery).
Keep looking around for a cheap copy of Mac OS. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
